Subject: File Properties
While working under Windows 2000 Professional SP-4 I added a lot of
information to image files (.jpg, etc.) in the 'Properties' feature
that included such items as 'Title', 'Comments', etc. This info would
pop up whenever I hovered my mouse pointer over a file that had been so
annotated and would tell me a lot about the file without actually
needing to open it.
Now, having built a new system using Windows XP Professional SP-2, this
information cannot be seen by the new operating system and it is a very
major setback to me, as that information was created with much effort
and to have it lost is most painful.
There should be a 'patch' that would enable the new OS to read files
created under an older version, and I truly hope that someone will have
an answer to this most vexing issue.
Thanks much,
